If you had to pick one wood in your core forever, what would you choose?

[qazwsxedc34]

Poplar, maple, paulownia, beech, fir, aspen, bamboo, oak, yellow pine, birch, etc,.

I'm no wood expert but since I've looked through K2's technical gear guide I'd say paulownia

 

[LineSkier]

Whatever is used in Stockli's vertically laminated wood cores.

always been a big maple fan for dampness/durability, but I do enjoy the snapiness and weight of poplar or bamboo/poplar. I don't think I've been on any other wood core than those few

 

[onenerdykid]

Cores aren't normally just one kind of wood tho...

Sand

 

[RudyGarmisch]

100% bamboo.

 

[Session]

100% bamboo.

 

[Woos]

"bamboo duhhhh"

 

[freeballer]

100% bamboo wouldn't work that well. It would be hard to control and way too poppy and wouldn't stay in the turn.

Bamboo
